Giving an example of how the arts can produce various levels of creativity, Connie's rapturous description of the Red Carpet shattering design of her gown and headdress by South African designer S C A L O® is a highlight of the interview. Adding to the importance of New Orleans' influence as "the most African City in America," Batiste affirmed the work of Hannah Beachler hailing from New Orleans. Pointing out the influence of NOLA's Black Indian Masking that is promoted and sustained by artists such as National Endowments of the Arts Heritage Fellow, Chief Shaka Zulu, Batiste heralded New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell and the Mayor's Office of Cultural Economy. Beachler's red carpet dress at the premiere of "Wakanda Forever" paid homage to Black Indian Masking tradition.
Batiste stressed the importance of cultural exchange that marks his work with Dame Chiume and other Africans since his founding of NOSACONN Inc. in 1998 with over 80 trips to the Motherland. He cited the occasion of his first cousin Jon Batiste, before his Late Night Show with Stephen Colbert fame, winner of an Oscar and five Grammy Awards, traveling with him and fellow New Orleans native Wynton Marsalis, winner of nine Grammy Awards on a tour the NOSACONN CEO arranged to Johannesburg's Joy of Jazz Festival that will be celebrating it's 23rd edition November 25-26, 2022.
